How does my git repository keep getting corrupted?
I am using ubuntu 14.10 (64bit), git version 2.1.0. This is a repository that has been around for several years, and has recently started having issues. Sometimes I'll change branches, edit a file, and type git status. It will show a bunch of files as "modified" that actually haven't changed at all. If I type the following: $ git commit -am "fixed sms message" I get errors like this: error: short read No such file or directory error: globalstatic/images/console/avatar_f.gif: failed to insert intodatabase error: unable to index file globalstatic/images/console/avatar_f.gif fatal: updating files
